Vinland Tales takes you to the frozen north to build your own Viking colony in this casual survival release

by Oliver Mar 19,2025

Colossi Games, creators of *Gladiators: Survival in Rome* and *Daisho: Survival of a Samurai*, have launched their latest casual survival title: *Vinland Tales*. This new game transports players to the icy north, where they assume the role of a Viking leader establishing a colony in a harsh, unfamiliar land.

Fans of Colossi's previous work will find *Vinland Tales* familiar. The game retains the isometric perspective, low-poly graphics, and relaxed approach to survival mechanics that define their style. Building a thriving colony, managing your clan, and gathering resources are crucial for survival.

Beyond the core gameplay, *Vinland Tales* offers a wealth of additional features. Minigames, guilds, talent trees, quests, and dungeons provide ample content. Cooperative play allows players to team up with friends and conquer the challenges together.

One potential concern is Colossi Games' rapid release schedule. While their ambition to explore diverse settings and historical periods is commendable, it raises questions about the depth of each game. Whether *Vinland Tales* can carve a significant niche or feels too shallow remains to be seen.
